It has been a few months since the last blog post (seven if you’re counting). A lot has happened in that time, not just within Livelynight, but around the world in general. The moment that stands out to me, at this time of writing, is this tweet from the Rosetta Mission:
It may seem strange but seeing that brought warmth that I had not expect. An extension of humanity made the journey millions of miles away only to go dark after a daring mission to land on a comet. And when the lander was all but declared lost, it wakes up months after and sends gigabytes of data back to earth. That's the sort of space exploration movie I would be interested in.
Of course, we at Livelynight are nowhere close to the achievement of the Rosseta mission and we wouldn’t dare make that comparison. What we take from this is that you can always rise up after a lost period. We can all stand up when things don't go as planned. The Philae Lander woke up. Livelynight is waking up. And you can wake up too if you need to.
If you’re looking for more information on the philae lander, the last communication was on the 9th of July. http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/philae-lander-has-gone-silent--and-we-might-never-hear-from-it-again-10405036.html.
